Description

A herbaceous plant that is ideal for brightening up balconies and terraces thanks to its long flowering period, which lasts from March until the first frosts, with a profusion of flowers clustered in racemose inflorescences that rise above the dense foliage, also attracting insects that are beneficial forpollination and the preservation of biodiversity. Although it appears delicate, it is very hardy if kept adequately watered, bearing in mind that it does not tolerate periods of drought or waterlogging.
